Summary

This PR implements a comprehensive overhaul of the agent system, transforming it from a single-pass code generator into a true ReAct (Reasoning, Acting, Observing) agent that iterates with tools.

Key Changes

Agent Architecture

  • Implemented structured action parsing from LLM JSON output
  • Added execute_structured_action() using ToolRegistry for file/shell operations
  • Agent now iterates on failure instead of returning after first attempt
  • Observation feedback loop feeds tool results back into reasoning
  • Todo tracking system for multi-step goal completion

New Files

  • crates/fluent-agent/src/prompts.rs - Comprehensive ReAct system prompt with tool documentation
  • Added parse_structured_action() public function for JSON action extraction

Configuration

  • Increased max_tokens to 16000 for complete code generation
  • Updated system prompts to emphasize code-only output
  • Added "INCREMENTAL BUILDING" section guiding skeleton-first development

Verified Working

Successfully created a solitaire game in 3 iterations:

  1. write_file main.lua → Failed (no parent dir) → Agent learned
  2. create_directory ./solitaire → Success
  3. write_file /full/path/main.lua → Success (238 lines of Lua)
agent.loop.structured_action tool=Some("write_file") type='FileOperation'
agent.tool.error tool='write_file' error=Failed to canonicalize parent path ''
agent.loop.structured_action tool=Some("create_directory") type='FileOperation'  
agent.tool.success tool='create_directory'
agent.loop.structured_action tool=Some("write_file") type='FileOperation'
agent.tool.success tool='write_file' output_len=276
agent.loop.complete all_todos_done iter=3

Test plan

  • Build succeeds: cargo build --release
  • Agent creates solitaire game with iterative tool use
  • Agent recovers from errors (creates directory after path failure)
  • Observations fed back into reasoning (visible in logs)
  • Todo completion triggers exit

Note

Adds centralized secure HTTP client and structured logging, introduces engine rate limiting, hardens config/auth/redaction and path/input validation, and delivers a significantly enhanced TUI with persistence, controls, and performance metrics.

  • Core:
    • Introduces centralized secure HTTP client (http_client.rs) using rustls, timeouts, pooling; adopts in auth/engines.
    • Adds structured logging module (logging.rs) with JSON/human formats; migrates to tracing across crates.
    • Enhances config loading (YAML/JSON/TOML auto-detect, TOML→JSON), env credential resolution, and redaction behavior.
  • Security & Validation:
    • Adds SecurePathValidator and strengthens InputValidator with property-based tests; improves redaction patterns.
  • Engines:
    • Implements token-bucket rate limiter (rate_limiter.rs) with integration tests/demos.
    • Standardizes clients to secure builder; improves error messages for missing API keys.
    • Cache/connection pool/tui-facing tweaks and JSON output consistency.
  • CLI/TUI:
    • Major TUI upgrades (Simple/Full/ASCII/Collaborative paths): log persistence, help overlay, performance metrics (FPS/frame ms), pause/resume via control channel, run IDs, max log caps.
    • Improves completions, extract_code fence handling, and tools UX.
  • SDK & Lambda:
    • Adds SdkError and builder validation (OpenAI); Lambda gains cold-start tracking, payload size checks, and structured error responses.
  • Tests/Examples/Integration:
    • Extensive golden/E2E/tests; property tests; new examples (games), scripts, and Terminal‑Bench adapter (tbench_adapter).

…ols default

Major agent improvements:
- determine_game_type now detects Love2D/Lua requests and generates Lua code
- Support for solitaire, pong, breakout, minesweeper game types
- Files created in outputs/ directory instead of overwriting existing examples
- Dynamic file paths based on game type and platform
- Tools now enabled by default in agentic mode (use --no-tools to disable)
- Added --no-tools CLI flag
- Creates output directories automatically

Supported platforms: Love2D (Lua), Python/Pygame, HTML5/JS, Rust/crossterm
Simplified agent prompts to be generic rather than domain-specific:

LlmCodeGenerator:
- Simple, clear prompt that emphasizes following the user's exact request
- No hardcoded domain knowledge - let the LLM handle specifics
- Works for any task, not just games

SimpleHeuristicPlanner:
- Passes user goal directly to code generator
- Simple file extension detection based on language/framework keywords
- Output to outputs/agent_output.{ext}

The agent should now work for ANY task the user requests, not just
predefined game types.
Previously, planning strategies created ActionPlans with empty parameters,
causing tool execution to fail with "Tool name not specified" error.

Fixed planning strategies:
- ToolPlanningStrategy: Extracts tool_name from reasoning output (shell,
  file operations, cargo commands) and sets it in parameters
- CodePlanningStrategy: Uses goal description as specification parameter
- FilePlanningStrategy: Detects operation type (read/write/delete/list)
  from reasoning and sets operation parameter

This enables the ReAct loop to properly execute tools based on reasoning.
MCP auto-connect fix:
- Changed serde_yaml to toml parser for config files
- Made toml_to_json function public for reuse across crates

Action type determination fix:
- Reordered checks to prioritize ToolExecution for operational tasks
- Added explicit patterns for cargo commands, shell commands
- Only fall back to CodeGeneration for explicit code creation requests
- Changed default action from Planning to ToolExecution (safer)

This ensures simple tasks like "run tests" use tools instead of
generating unnecessary Rust code.
- Add `force_enabled` field to CacheManager for reliable test behavior
- Add `new_enabled()` and `with_config_enabled()` test constructors
- Update all cache tests to use force-enabled manager
- Use unique engine names with UUID to prevent test collisions
- Fix double-checked locking race condition in get_cache()

All 17 cache_manager tests now pass reliably.
- Add Lua, Python, Go, and other languages to code extraction patterns
- Add strip_language_marker function to remove accidental language markers
- Add game-specific requirements in prompts to reduce LLM hallucination
- Add validate_game_output function to verify generated code matches request
- Add refinement loop when validation fails with game-specific feedback

Fixes: code extraction including language markers, LLM generating wrong game types
- Add centralized prompts.rs with AGENT_SYSTEM_PROMPT implementing
  true ReAct (Reasoning, Acting, Observing) pattern
- Add observation feedback loop - recent observations now fed back
  into reasoning prompts for context-aware decision making
- Add structured action parsing with StructuredAction struct and
  JSON schema validation instead of unreliable keyword matching
- Add verification system with VerificationResult for action validation
- Add behavioral reminders appended to tool outputs for in-context guidance
- Add todo tracking system with TodoItem/TodoStatus for multi-step goals
- Add GoalCompletionCriteria for structured goal completion checking
- Add code_validation.rs with semantic validation for generated code
  (supports Rust, Python, JavaScript, Lua, HTML with language-specific checks)
- Fix code extraction with strip_language_marker() to remove leaked
  language markers from generated files

This transforms the agent from a thin wrapper with keyword dispatch
to a true ReAct agent with systematic reasoning and observation feedback.
The system prompt was created but never sent to the LLM because the
Request struct only has flowname and payload fields - no system message.

Now the full AGENT_SYSTEM_PROMPT (defining ReAct algorithm, output format,
and tool usage) is prepended to the reasoning payload so the LLM actually
knows HOW to reason and act.

Also switched from hardcoded tool list to TOOL_DESCRIPTIONS constant
for proper tool documentation in prompts.
Two issues were causing bad game output:

1. Code extraction failed on truncated responses:
   - When LLM response is cut off mid-code, there's no closing ```
   - extract_code() fell through to fallback that returned raw response
   - Fix: If no closing fence found, extract everything after opening fence

2. max_tokens was too low (4000):
   - A solitaire game is ~800+ lines / 3000+ tokens
   - With LLM preamble text, easily exceeded 4000 limit
   - Increased to 16000 tokens for complete game output

Also updated system prompt to emphasize code-only output.
Major refactor to make the agent actually use tools iteratively:

1. Parse structured actions from LLM output (parse_structured_action)
2. Execute via ToolRegistry instead of direct fs::write
3. Continue iterating instead of returning after first attempt
4. Feed formatted observations back into reasoning loop

Key changes:
- Add public parse_structured_action() function in action.rs
- Add tool_registry to AutonomousExecutor
- Add execute_structured_action() method using ToolRegistry
- Refactor main loop to parse JSON actions and execute via tools
- Update system prompt with INCREMENTAL BUILDING guidance
- Use format_observation() for structured feedback

The agent now:
- Tries to parse structured JSON actions from reasoning
- Falls back to legacy paths if JSON parsing fails
- Executes tools via ToolRegistry
- Stores observations and feeds them into next reasoning
- Continues loop until all todos complete or max iterations
This commit includes:

## Agent System Overhaul
- Implemented true ReAct architecture with structured action parsing

The hardcoded weights (0.5, 0.3, 0.2) should be extracted as named constants at the module level or made configurable through ToTConfig. This makes the weighting strategy more maintainable and allows for experimentation.

Bug: FilePlanningStrategy produces plans without required path parameter

The FilePlanningStrategy::plan method creates an ActionPlan with only operation and goal parameters, but execute_file_operation requires a path parameter (line 1071-1075) and will error with "File path not specified" when it's missing. This causes all file operations planned through this strategy to fail. The strategy needs to extract or determine the file path from the reasoning output or goal and include it in the parameters.

Bug: Security audit now ignores vulnerabilities in CI

The audit job was changed to continue-on-error: true and the audit command now uses || echo "::warning::..." to ignore failures. This means security vulnerabilities detected by cargo audit will no longer block PRs from being merged. The combination of continue-on-error and swallowing the exit code effectively disables the security audit as a gate, potentially allowing dependencies with known vulnerabilities into the codebase.

Replace simple heuristic-based goal detection with weighted multi-signal
scoring system that aggregates evidence from multiple sources:

Signals (weighted):
- reasoning_confidence (25%): From reasoning engine assessment
- structured_assessment (25%): From parsed StructuredReasoningOutput
- file_evidence (20%): From successful file creation/verification
- execution_success (20%): From command success patterns in observations
- progress_trend (10%): From iteration progress heuristics

Features:
- Collect signals from context, reasoning output, and observations
- Weight and combine signals with configurable weights
- 10% bonus when 3+ signals strongly agree (>0.8 confidence)
- Threshold at 0.75 for goal achievement (tunable)

Benefits:
- More robust than single-signal detection
- Reduces false positives from keyword matching alone
- Enables better debugging via signal logging
- Configurable weights for different use cases

Tests: 4 new unit tests for signal defaults and score calculations

Closes: fluent_cli-d0t
1. ethical_guardrails.rs:476 - Fix unsafe float comparison
   - Changed .partial_cmp(b).unwrap() to .partial_cmp(b).unwrap_or(Ordering::Equal)
   - Prevents panic if NaN values are compared

2. human_collaboration.rs:966-970 - Fix repeated unwrap calls
   - Extract intervention to local variable after guaranteed lookup
   - Use expect() with clear message for the guaranteed-present case
   - Reduces redundant calls and clarifies intent

- Added WorkingMemory.get_stats() method to expose MemoryUsageStats
- Added CrossSessionPersistence.get_session_count() method

Closes fluent_cli-3id, fluent_cli-9wv
Introduces a comprehensive execution loop abstraction that unifies
different execution patterns across the codebase:

- ExecutionLoop trait with step execution, iteration control,
  completion detection, state management, and error handling
- ExecutionState struct for unified state representation
- StepResult for step execution results
- ExecutorConfig for configurable retry/backoff policies
- UniversalExecutor that can run any ExecutionLoop implementation

The trait design supports:
- ReAct loops (reasoning-acting-observing cycles)
- Task-based loops (todo/goal tracking)
- DAG-based execution (dependency resolution)
- Linear pipelines (sequential steps)

Bug: File extension detection matches substrings too broadly

The file extension detection logic uses contains("lua") which will incorrectly match words containing "lua" like "evaluate", "cellular", or "modular", causing the wrong file extension to be assigned. Similarly, contains("rust") matches "frustrate" and "robust", contains("web") matches "cobweb", and contains(".py") is too short. The detection should use word boundary checks or more specific patterns to avoid false positives from natural language in goal descriptions.

Agent now immediately exits with clear guidance when encountering
billing/auth issues instead of timing out. Adds ApiErrorKind enum
and classify_api_error() to distinguish transient vs non-recoverable
errors.

Closes: fluent_cli-9ry
Transient errors (rate limits, timeouts, network issues) now retry
up to 3 times with exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s). Non-recoverable
errors (billing, auth) still exit immediately.

Adds RetryConfig struct, get_transient_error_message(), and 8 new tests.

Bug: Verification failure doesn't update ActionResult success status

When verify_action_result detects issues and sets verified = false, the ActionResult.success field remains true. This creates an inconsistent state where an action reports success but verification failed (e.g., tests didn't pass, file content doesn't match, or build errors were detected). Consumers of ActionResult checking only the success field will incorrectly believe the action completed successfully, potentially causing the agent to skip necessary error recovery.

Bug: Missing default for required parameters field in StructuredAction

The StructuredAction struct has parameters: HashMap<String, serde_json::Value> as a required field without a #[serde(default)] attribute, while tool and rationale are properly marked as Option<String>. If an LLM generates JSON output like {"action_type": "Analysis", "rationale": "Check quality"} without a parameters field, deserialization will fail even though parameters may not be necessary for certain action types. This creates an inconsistent API and unnecessary parsing failures during the ReAct loop.

Implement comprehensive progress tracking in ExecutionContext for long-
running agent tasks. This enables:

- Periodic progress checkpoints with iteration tracking
- Milestone detection (25%, 50%, 75%, 90%, 100% completion)
- Action success/failure statistics with success rate
- Token usage and API call tracking
- Disk persistence for checkpoint recovery
- Resumption strategies (continue, retry, skip, rebuild)

Key additions:
- ProgressData struct with completion estimates and metrics
- ProgressMilestone enum for milestone detection
- ProgressRecoveryInfo for guiding resumption
- 15+ progress tracking methods on ExecutionContext
- 5 comprehensive unit tests

Bug: Code generator returns markdown fencing instead of code

The LlmCodeGenerator::generate_code prompt instructs the LLM to "Return ONLY the code in a fenced code block" (line 718), but then returns resp.content directly without extracting the actual code from the markdown fencing. When the LLM responds with rust..., the entire response including the markdown markers is returned. This corrupted output is subsequently written to files by GameCreationPlanner, producing invalid code files containing markdown syntax instead of executable code.

Bug: Test modifies shared environment variables without synchronization

The test_rate_limit_config_from_env test sets and removes environment variables (FLUENT_RATE_LIMIT_ENABLED, FLUENT_REASONING_RPS) without synchronization. When tests run in parallel (Rust's default), this can cause flaky failures in other tests that read these same environment variables via RateLimitConfig::from_environment(), including the production code initialization path.

Implement CodePortingPatternDetector with:
- 8 built-in language pair patterns (C→Rust, C++→Rust, Python→Rust, Python→Go, JS→TS, Java→Kotlin, C→Go, Ruby→Python)
- Type and stdlib mappings for each language pair
- Word boundary matching for accurate language detection
- Stricter porting task detection to avoid false positives
- 7 unit tests covering detection, augmentation, and edge cases

This enables the agent to provide context-aware guidance when detecting code porting tasks.

Bug: Missing serde(default) on ToolConfig struct breaks deserialization

The ToolConfig struct has #[serde(default = "default_web_browsing")] only on the web_browsing field, but the struct itself lacks #[serde(default)]. When deserializing existing configuration files that predate the addition of web_browsing, deserialization will fail because the field is required but not present. Other fields like file_operations, shell_commands, rust_compiler, and git_operations also lack individual serde defaults, meaning partial configuration updates could fail unexpectedly.

Bug: JSON brace matching ignores strings causing incorrect extraction

The parse_structured_action function uses naive brace counting to extract JSON from text, but doesn't account for braces inside JSON string values. If the LLM outputs JSON containing a string like "rationale": "Use { and } for blocks", the depth counter will be thrown off by braces within the string, causing incorrect extraction of the JSON object. This can lead to truncated or malformed JSON being parsed, resulting in failures or incorrect action parsing. The same bug exists in both the public function and the IntelligentActionPlanner method version.
